Flaming Silver and Forest Flame are a great combination of spectacular evergreen shrubs for your garden or spring border. Each spring they will surprise you with an outburst of new golden-red foliage and fiery red young foliage. They remain quite compact and are very well suited to smaller borders or large planters on your decking. These slow growing shrubs need little attention, all they require is a well-drained acid soil and a mulch of peat each spring.

How to take care of Pieris combo Flaming Silver Forest Flame
For best results soak the roots for approx 2 hrs before planting and water well after planting and for the next few weeks. This is a long-lived hardy evergreen shrub. It thrives in acid lime free soil and dislikes chalky soils. You can plant in autumn or spring. Add peat at time of planting & plant in partial shade. They flower in April or May. This shrub does not like pruning much just cut back old straggly bits in late summer or autumn, remove dead flowers in May to encourage new flower buds.
